1. Check the box "make this my main display" to set the Raven as your main display, then, set the "Taskbar" to "auto hide" to make more screen real estate for the Raven. Last, install Raven software and Touch driver.

2. If using MTi1 (DVI Connector/Aluminum Frame and Raven MTi logo on the Top), open MTplatform app and Disable "Native touch". It is located in Program files X86 / Multi Touch / Multi Touch Platform. This will only need to be enabled for Pro Tools.

If using MTi2 (HDMI Connector and Raven MTi logo on the bottom) , click the system tray and select "Configure" from the UPDD Console and follow the instructions on screen.

Note: If you don't have the key commands folder in the Presets, press the "save" icon (the floppy disk) in the key commands window and save a basic key command file, this will automatically create the Presets/Key Commands folder.

6. The Project/Mix button toggles between Workspace 1 and 2. So depending on your displays you may need to update these so the windows will open in the correct spot and you can utilize all displays.
